[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1609454, member: 239"] If a driver pulls up on the rear of another car at speeds in excess of 60 MPH and is too close (less than 2 car lengths) that is aggressive. If you can pass on the left and choose not too and instead choose to run up the rear of the car ahead that is aggressive. If on a 2 lane road just pass on the left when the opportunity arises. Unless you've got some kind of emergency going on where its life or death pushing the edge of the envelope to get by a vehicle you think is blocking you is aggressive. Now I know you have no clue. Active defense is not an oxymoron. The military teaches active defense doctrine and has for years. I'll put it in terms you can understand though. If someone breaks into your home you don't wait for them to pull their gun and take a shot. You shoot them with yours before they have a chance to do you harm. Since you will probably have trouble figuring out who the aggressor is and who the active defender is I'll make it even more simple; the guy who breaks in is the aggressor or tailgater. The guy who pre-emptively shoots is the tailgatee or active defender. Or you could just run away - that would be a passive defense and what you seem to believe is the proper course of action for one being tailgated. If you think passive defense (e.g. move over) is the best course of action when confronted with a lethal threat then I suggest you move somewhere like Massachusetts. Lots of passive defenders there. That said: Welcome to my ignore list. Corresponding with a brick wall is not one of those activities that is terribly enlightening and is generally a waste of time. [/QUOTE]
